Journal berck's Journal: Linux functionality, inner ear infections..
I've not been feeling very well today, something of an inner ear infection, I think. Dad gave me Zithromax, so we'll see how I feel tomorrow.
I've got linux working... more or less. It's still not as clean as it really ought to be. But, it's come a LONG way. Finally got a scroll wheel as well as dual display working.. And, I know how to make the RAID array work once I get hard drives again.
XMMS is somewhat unimpressive, in that it doesn't seem very stable. WinAMP is even less stable under Linux, but it is still "alpha". Funny when a lot of what you're running is alpha.
I would say that the scroll wheel works BETTER with KDE than it does with windows. Windows has a habit of scrolling the wrong window. KDE is good about knowing waht you want it to do. That's class.
And man, real configurability is sooo nice. Course, it comes at the price of being forced to configure everything.
I'd like to get the web server back up, but that's not going to happen until the DSL modem is back under my control.. And it seems that it has to go in a windoze box. So I need something I can install 2k on.
Maybe I should get a job, build a new system, and put 2k on this one. Yeah. That's it. Or find something really cheap on which to install a 2k server. I could probably do it for not too expensive.
It's amazing how much you get addicted to dual display. I'm glad to have it back.
I wonder how fast thing will be once I get the RAID array back. I wonder if I'll bother install 2k on it. Well, that may depend upon whether or not I can get the printer working. And wordperfect. These are difficult tasks.
That's about all I've been up to today..
I just noticed that there's money in my account. Which means I can order a differential. It was probably there this morning, and I didn't notice. Yay, signs are good that my car will become unified again soon.. Though, not without much work. And it's been so long since I removed the timing belt, I'm beginning to wonder if I'll remember how to put it all back together. And that's the hard part.
